It's A and E; it cannot be D since the question is asking you about account configuration and D refers to creation, and that of course comes before configuration.

Not sure why choice D would be listed as correct. According to Gibson's book, a privileged account has additional rights and privileges beyond what a regular user has. Unless...the question is referring to the intern file folders as additional rights and privileges.
